European Style sunathing pool at Miami Hotel


Topless sunbathing is starting to be considered trendy and sexy at some regular hotels. The Fountainebleau hotel which is a regular textile hotel just underwent a big $500 million upgrade in Miami Florida. They wisely took out the family water park there and installed a European style sunbathing pool for topless sunbathing.

I guess they realized just like we have, that families and kids are nice, but they don't take long vacations. Couples take much longer vacations, that is why we cater to them. And vacationers don't enjoy being at topless or nude sunbathing pools with noisy kids hanging around.

Here is the story:

"Bringing sexy back, with $1B: Miami hotel reborn

The renovated Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach, FL ...It takes a lot to impress here, a place where magazine models shop and $100,000 cars creep by without a batted eye.
But there are exceptions, and in the 1950s and 60s the only one that mattered was the Fontainebleau hotel. Blending five-star luxury with chic, progressive style, it was where Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack stayed and played, where James Bond beat Goldfinger in a game of gin rummy. A sleek, curvy layer cake of a place bending into Atlantic beach.

But that was decades ago—centuries, really, in the lifetime of a high-class resort—and the grand old dame had been surpassed by newer and hipper sites.

Not anymore. After finding a new owner willing to pump in $1 billion.

..."It's not a planned, themed, Orlando or Vegas-type resort," Karawan said. "(Lapidus') feeling was, it's more about the people, all about social interaction. This is about you being the star."

...Gone is the former 7,000-square-foot children's water park, "Cookie's World." The new Fontainebleau features a freeform main pool and a separate "European" bath, where topless sunbathing will be allowed...

We stayed at the Fontainebleau back in the 1980's. It was a classy hotel back then. My feelings are they will do a great job of keeping their European style sunbathing pool classy and hopefully make more people realize that topless sunbathing is a fun thing to do on vacation.

I noticed that their spokesperson said "it's more about the people, all about social interaction." That is exactly what good nudist resorts are about. Topless and nude sunbathing is a positive experience. You want to share that experience with others. Guests at good nudist resorts have lots of fun and laughter as people have such a great time.
